Im 5'10-5'11" and i have long arms ... literally i had alot of weight shifted forward.... And yes they are 100% gonna put weight on your wrists. I used to laugh about them because they made me feel like i was on a sport bike...Like i said i feel for ya man!

I spotted those bars on OS_Deluxes bike a while ago before he had those BurlyBrand beachbars and thought those looked great.....until i actually mounted them and no BS they lasted on my bike 1 month. I talked to him about shoulder pain and he told me he had the same thing as me.

sorry OS hope you don't mind.... but hears the pic of OS_Deluxes bike with those 503's installed too.
